Just bought a Compaq laptop for school. Need it mainly for Word, Excel, and internet.

To be specific it's a DM745A#aba and contains:
Celeron 2.4
256
40
15"

I will add WIFI card.

Is compaq a good name? Picked up this pc new for $650.

Would Dell or Toshiba be a better choice even though I would have to pay more for the same system?

TIA,
Jim
